We get up each morning at noon

And our day is a glorious tune

Of all things unpleasant It's free

We live it, we love it, mais oui

The morning, A scherzo

by Brahms or Faur

Or maybe a quaint

Little French rondelet

We're cultured, tactful, discreet

We're definitely of the elite

You wake up in the morning

And the rooster crows

You wake up in the morning

And the ducks quack, quack

The chicks peep, peep

The turkeys gobble

The sheep baa, baa

And the cows moo, moo

You might think it's an awful squabble

To me that's heavenly music

That's heavenly music to me

Some folks like the noise of a city

They think our barnyard

songs ain't pretty

They even say it

mostly sounds off-key

Still it's heavenly music to me

I love to hear the music

When the donkeys bray

Chickens start to cackle

And it sounds right gay

Pigs oink, oink The birds are trillir

The frogs croak, croak

And the hens cluck, cluck

The crows caw, caw

Gol'dernit, it's thrilling

Aw, shucks, to me

That's heavenly music

That's heavenly music to me

Still it's heavenly music to me

The cats meow The crickets jumping

The billy goats bleat

And the geese peck, peck

The owls hoot, hoot

Now ain't that sumpir?

Why, heck! To me that's heavenly music

That's heavenly music to me

Yes, that's heavenly music to me

Heavenly music

Yes, it's heavenly music

Yes, it's heavenly music to me

Forget your troubles

Come on, get happy

You better chase all your cares away

Shout hallelujah Come on, get happy

Get ready for the judgment day

The sun is shining Come on, get happy

The Lord is waitir to take your hand

Shout hallelujah Come on, get happy

We're going to the promised land

We're heading 'cross the river

Wash your sins away in the tide

It's all so peaceful on the other side

Forget your troubles

Come on, get happy

You better chase all your cares away

Shout hallelujah Come on, get happy

Get ready for the judgment day

Forget your troubles

Come on, get happy

Chase your cares away

Hallelu, get happy

Before the judgment day

The sun is shining Come on, get happy

The Lord is waitir to take your hand

Shout hallelujah Come on, get happy

We're gonna be going

To the promised land

We're heading 'cross the river

Wash your sins away in the tide

It's quiet and peaceful

on the other side

Shout hallelujah Get happy

Get ready for your judgment day

Come on, get happy

Chase your cares away

Shout hallelujah Come on, get happy

How'd you like it?

Don't know, huh?

- Can't you go any faster, Orville?

- I'm going as fast as I can with safety.

If I hadrt looked all over New

York for you, we'd be there.

- But they're holding the curtain for me.

- I know.

I sent them a wire, didn't I?

Didrt I?

You did?

Oh, no.

Orville... Orville, look out!

Hey, kids, it went great.

- Joe, did I make any mistakes?

- You were beautiful. How about it, Es?

- She slayed them.

- Jane. Jane, I just want...

Orville! Oh, if you do

anything to stop this show...!

- I don't wanna stop it.

- You don't?

Of course not. What do you

think I went to New York for?

Why did you come here

if you don't want...?

Quiet!

- I wanna get this settled.

- I think it's a good idea.

I think so too. Jane,

you can get out of that...

Abigail's here. You

can give it to her.

Why wasrt she here four

days ago when we needed her?

You can't switch actors in

the middle of a performance.

- Why not?

- We're going great out there.

I've never had so much fun in my life.

- What are you talking about?

- This is what I'm talking about.

Smell. Greasepaint. Show business.

- Gesundheit.

- Joe, Janie. Change for your next number.

- Orville.

- Jane, I'm warning you.

If you step on-stage, you're

forcing me to close the show.

I'm warning you, Orville.

If you even look like you're

gonna close this show...

...I won't break our

engagement, I'll break your head!

- Jane, you're sweet.

- Oh, Joe.

- Did you hear...?

- Yes, I did. I'm trying to tell you.

- Will you please be quiet!

- I just don't understand...

That actor.

She's in love with that actor.

And that actor is in love with her.

- I'm not gonna stand for this.

- Stay where you are.

- Stay out of the way.

- No.

- I'm warning you.

- I'm warning you!

I'm giving an order around here.

The Falburys give the

orders and I'm a Falbury.

Sheriff, come over here.

- Yep. She's a Falbury, all right.

- Orville, speak to me.

He'll be all right. Just take him

out in the air. He'll be all right.

Will you please leave us alone?

Orville, darling, I didn't mean to...
